Drew Barrymore will appear on Oprah on Monday to announce that she is making a $1 million donation to World Food Programme (WFP), a food aid branch of the United Nations that feeds thousands of school children in Kenya.

“I have seen with my own eyes what a difference a simple cup of nutritious porridge can make in a child’s life,” Drew said. “It helps them learn, stay healthy and sets them on track for a bright future. I urge everyone — everywhere — to help WFP ‘Fill the Cup’ for hungry children, and make hunger history.”
Drew’s generous contribution kicks off WFP’s new ‘Fill the Cup’ campaign, which challenges America to help feed 10 million children for a year.

    We need more people like Drew Barrymore and Oprah bringing attention to world programs - WFP and UNHCR - that our world leaders are failing to support. Humanity before Politics!!!
